my dad also does this, and ngl it freaked me out a little bit when he decided to stick a banking app on an old oneplus 5T that didn’t even get security updates anymore, what’s worse he strongly refused the idea of me gifting him a newer phone, even a cheap-ish one. like i can afford it, god it’s no big deal.
I was going to say most banks probably don’t support older versions of Android for their apps, and realized he’s probably using a sketchy 3rd party app
maybe not in the states, that official banking app supports android versions all the way back to Android 6.0, the last android version supported by the OP5T is 10, so on that regard it was fine at least. you’d be surprised at how far back you can go compatibility-wise without breaking stuff with android’s first party compat libraries.
god if he was using a 3rd party app I would have fucking showed up at his doorstep at 12am and force him to update all his credentials.
